Lives of the Three Mrs. Judsons
by Arabella M. Willson
About the author
Very little biographical information about this author is easy to confirm today. The clearest detail I found is that she was active in the 1850s and was also published as Arabella W. Stuart as well as Mrs. Arabella M. Willson.
She is best known for Lives of the Three Mrs. Judsons, first published in 1855. The book focuses on Ann Hasseltine Judson, Sarah Hall Judson, and Emily Chubbuck Judson, tracing their lives, missionary work, and the personal trials they endured alongside Adoniram Judson in Burma.
Because reliable surviving records about her own life appear to be scarce, her reputation rests mainly on this biography and its place in 19th-century religious and biographical writing.
